    Motherboard repair question

    I know the answer to this question, but I thought I'd ask just so I can say I exausted all possibilities. I have an old Asus motherboard, an A8V-E Deluxe. It stopped posting completely at random a few weeks ago. I replaced it with another 939 board I borrowed, just to make sure it was the...

    Diablo: Hellfire

    What ever happened to the expansion for the original Diablo, named Hellfire. I can't find any mention of it on the Blizzard website. Did Blizzard not make it and/or disavows it's existence?

    Nvidia Control Panel

    What does everyone think of the new* Nvidia control panel? I hate it and I can't figure out how to turn the dam thing off. Has anyone found out how to switch back to the old system or am I missing the elegance of the new system?

    Hellgate London or The Witcher?

    I played Diablo for way longer than any person should, and I played DIablo 2 for about half that time. Titan Quest was almost a perfect game, it just didn't have that extra something to make it a great game (random level generation). That said, I'm trying to decide between Hellgate London...

    Where to buy DRM Free music?

    I'm looking for songs for my wedding and I need a place/site/service to buy music that doesn't have any DRM. I know I could go buy the CD and it would (probably) be DRM free, but I only need 2-3 songs that aren't all on the same CD. I remember hearing about a service that came out that was...

    Should be Illegal

    I recently decided to get a wireless card for my laptop so it'll be useful for something when I take it to class. I, of course, checked newegg first. I'm just going to be surfing, maybe a bit of research, so all I need is a simple card with all the crazy security my university uses. I found...

    Windows x64 Printer list

    I recently made the switch to Windows x64 and found out that my printer doesn't have 64 bit drivers. In fact, most printers don't yet. I've been looking around for a while now and I can't find a list of printers known to have 64 bit drivers, so I decided to make one. 64 Bit Drivers Exist...

    Mini LCD software

    I just got one of those little 20x4 LCD's and finally got it working. Now I just had the brilliant idea of displaying the current track I'm listening to in iTunes. I noticed that the software I'm using has a plugin for winamp, but not iTunes. Is iTunes retarted and not supporting mini LCD's...

    VGA Extensions

    I need to put my monitor about 4 feet from where it can reach now. I went to Fry's and got a 6 foot extension cable for $10. When I hooked it up I got a shadow effect, and it was really irritating. Did I get a crappy cable, or do all extensions make this shadow?

    I have a Maxtor 300gig sata HD and, well, it's kinda loud. It make a grinding noise that I have come to associate with Maxtor, as all my previous Maxtor drives have made the same noise. I had a friend that also noticed this a while ago, and used something called "drive silencer" or something...
